Echelon Club in Alpharetta is the toughest course I've ever played


I played there last April the Sunday before Masters week on my way to Augusta. The pro told us the greens were about a 12 that day. Easily the fastest I've ever putted. The elevation changes got me. The downhill holes are really fun, but the uphill holes suck. I think I shot around 83-84, but I didn't play the tips. If there were drives you couldn't carry into the fairway, sounds like you shouldn't have been either.

I'd believe it if they were running 12 today...you paid for it if you misread a putt...

Nothing like Driver-3i on a 425 par 4 because your drive that was crushed was right into a hill

Eh, it was only those two holes that the carry was tough. 18 I should have carried, but I tried to cheat the corner...#11 was just a long carry. Hit my second drive 285 and it carried the marsh by 4 yards...
